ABOUT ME

I have been fishing since I can remember. Having had the luck to be raised in a military family, this has allowed me to fish all over the world. Began tournament fishing in 2007 and while I don’t get to do it often enough, I still love the rush of the launch. I am proud to represent Pink Fishing, 1st Lite Rods, Save Second Base, Tyson Fencing, Pink Rack Project, Cross Roads, Blessed by Grace Productions and Baker Lures.

I don’t know where I would be without Team Pink. They have become such a GREAT family and have been in my corner during some of the most difficult times in my life. Thank you all SO much I owe you more than I can ever repay you.

HOBBIES

GOAL

Spread the word that no one should ever have to go through cancer diagnoses alone. Have been a member of Team Pink Fishing for a few years and can’t tell you how much it has helped both me and my wife through her diagnoses. Hope that one day soon this can all be put behind everyone.
